now i don't have the time anymore cos i've got myself "renewed" in the company. no major changes. so i guess, things will be the same for a while. my manager told me am destined to be in here. she convinced me that i can make a difference in the society. right. maybe i can and maybe i will.. if i can see my future in it. right now, things look kinda murky like a swamp at pasir ris.
i made my GRAND entrance at last night's play when i became the last one to arrive, along with my friend . traffic was heavy, in other words, we took our time to get here while we dress up. heh. the play's not too bad. but i want to stop myself from watching any more of these plays cos i find myself constantly thinking about the message and the purpose of the stories. why can't i just watch one play like i watch a movie? mindless, good for laughs kinds. like.. miss congeniality 2. it was good for laughs and mindless with weak plot, choppy storyline and too many characters. but i enjoyed watching it. free movie... what can i say? don't we just love free things?
the news these days have been loading singaporeans with information abt the earthquake and all.. and once again, we, as a nation, come to the rescue! i felt so irritated watching it. not because it's "we're helping bla bla bla AGAIN cos we should bla bla bla" or seeing my boss on tv in surabaya acting like a puppet OR watching interviews of singaporean volunteers on a "mission" to save the indonesians by building homes and toilets. no, i was more irritated by my dad smirking throughout the news and thinking out loud, "huh.. singapore.. show-off". wahlau dad.. please ok. don't anyhow say can or not? we really like to help people who are in trouble ok.. our loans to them are much cheaper than other countries! and they can take their whole life-time to pay us back.
but his mood changed tremendously when we switched channel to malaysian news. his mood ALWAYS change for the better when he's given anything malaysian. i think he would even jump for joy if i tell him am getting married in malaysia. hah.
will be going to watch the play again this evening. and this time, i hope i can just sit back, enjoy and NOT think about anything else other than entertaining myself. but first, i need to get a decent top so that i don't have to avoid my future mom in law. oooh shopping time.
